Yeah, I think that was clear from the moment Cap uses his shield to boil water.

Anyway, I must say I'm enjoying the flashbacks quite a lot, even more than the 'main' story. Steve Rogers stealing? I loved that moment.

Five issues in and I am still convinced that my original theory is correct. I don't know what Zola's endgame is here but I still suspect that Cap is still strapped into one of Zola's crazy machines or laying on a table in his lab and all of these adventures in Zola's world are actually happening in Cap's mind.

I'll have to go back and give this a try. I am actually enjoying this series but I wonder if I were to sit down and read it all in one sitting, if I wouldn't like it a little bit more.

I assume that it was the same logic that was used in Dragon Ball Z where the fighters would wear these ridiculously heavy, gravity defying clothes to train in and then remove them prior to battle so they could move faster and punch harder...or something.

Agree, while it is nice to have a Planet Captain America storyline it would be nice to have a little more trickle of the end game. As we are coming to issue six I think that is where we will see it, as a nice end cap to the first arc.

I recommend it. Remender reads better collected I find.I noticed her suit is supposed to be a " sensory deprivation suit" so I assumed she wanted it to be like sex. Who knows...

I was right about Jet Black wanting to ride the American rocket. What's the age of consent in Zolandia?

Figured it Ian was going to be brainwashed/manipulated by Zola at some point.

I'm pretty annoyed that Remender isn't really tapping into Kirby Zola at this point, instead choosing to make him a prototypical mad scientist dictator. I was expecting more hat tips to Kirby. It's kind of getting bad/silly at this point.
